Get me out of here!!!

Mum had been very happy for four or five days and Dad was feeling less guilty about it all - but today when he called to see her, she had all her belongings in plastic bags and was sitting waiting to be taken home and was very cranky when she learned that she would not be going home.  Dad had to get help from the sister in charge, who put her arm around Mum's shoulder and lead her back to her room.  

Sadly Mum's room mate is a lady who is unable to communicate - she lies in bed and does not talk and needs someone to feed and do everything for her.  If only Mum had some company in her room - but that is not to be at the moment.

Dad speaks very highly of the staff - in fact  says their care is 200% - he is very happy with the way Mum is being cared for, but always when I speak with him expresses his feelings of guilt at having to leave her in care.
